LEGO 9844 Light Sensor is a Mindstorms NXT accessory released in 2006, containing 1 piece. It is a plug-in sensor for the NXT programmable brick from sets 8527 and 8547. The unit measures ambient and reflected light intensity, enabling functions like line following and light/dark threshold detection. It connects to an NXT sensor port and was sold as a standalone component to expand NXT robots.

A new and sealed Light Sensor is currently valued at around $17. The average used price is $9 for those in good overall condition. Based on current trends, this set could be valued near $17 within the next year. The set was available for 100 months, from October 2007 to February 2016.
Light Sensor is a rare LEGO set. We have not seen set 9844-1 available in good/new condition online or in retail stores for over 2 years. Given how hard it is to find, the estimated value in new condition of $16.99 may not reflect its true collectible worth.

Detect light intensity!

The Light Sensor assists in helping your robot to "see." Using the NXT Brick (sold separately), it enables your robot to distinguish between light and dark, as well as determine the light intensity in a room or the light intensity of different colors.

Includes 1 Light Sensor.
Does not include connector cable.
This is the individual component, and does not include the NXT Intelligent Brick, software or any accessories. It requires the complete LEGO® MINDSTORMS® NXT set (#8527 or #8547) for use.
